Davy Jones

It was very sad to hear that Davy Jones had died yesterday. Like most kids in the 1960s, I loved the Monkees. It's funny, I don't remember the show being on tv when we lived in Singapore and Malaya between 1965 and 1968 but I do remember the songs being played on the radio.
'I'm a Believer' particularly reminds me of playing in the arcade at Sandycroft in Penang, it was always on in the background.
There are many songs that remind me of our three years spent there but this one does the most!

Yes I too was saddened when I heard that Davy Jones had passed away as "Daydream believer" was the first (single) record I bought (for about 5c I think) whilst living in Singapore in the mid 60's.Ingrid
